Sorry to go off topic, I do not know anything about Francois, but I am interested in the history of the Imbeault family.
My great great grandfather was David Imbeault and was later changed to Ambeault sometime before the 1910s. He was located in Laird township ontario just east of Sault Ste. Marie. There is now a large population of Ambeaults in the area. I have visited some of my family in Montreal that knew my great grandfather, William, and they said he spoke french with an accent typical of someone from Rivere de loup Quebec. They also said that my great great grandfather used to brag that he was 7th generation Canadian, and that our family came from France and Belgum.
If you have any information on the Imbeault family I would greatly appreciate it.
thanks
Jason Ambeault
